I think ghostery is owned by an ad company. I wouldn't trust it.

Seriously? I had no idea. That's kind of ironic if it is

I'm surprised I haven't heard this before. Thanks! I will proceed to only use uBlock Origin from now on (although I really enjoy the auto-reject cookies)

uBlock can disable cookie popups, go to settings, filters and then scroll down to annoyances. Enable AdGuard Cookiebanners and Easylist Cookiebanners
